646 House rules

"Lian'er, hang the map on the curtain, lie down, and watch the official explain it......"

Can't sleep together? Then let's have a big quilt. All five women lay on their beds, hanging their maps on the curtains, and themselves lay among them with a small stick as a whip. Even if you can't really do anything, it's not bad to enjoy the ring fat swallow and thinness, and hug left and right.

For those who are not accustomed to looking at maps, no matter how clear the explanation is, it is impossible to find an intuitive impression on a piece of paper. Hong Tao didn't expect the eldest princess to see anything.

She's just excited, and she'll be able to fall asleep after making her head dizzy from the map, and she'll have to listen to herself when she wakes up tomorrow morning.

In fact, Hong Tao himself doesn't know where to go, and he can't choose blindly, because there is a problem with being a magistrate, that is, once he goes to office, he can't wander around blindly, he has to stay in his own management circle honestly, and if he wants to leave, he must get permission from the imperial court.

It is easiest to go to Zhangzhou to find Wang Hao for development, and with the assistance of the Wang family, there is basically no problem of communicating with the local aborigines. But everything has both good and bad aspects, in the short term, it is to worry about yourself, in the long run, too much reliance on the Wang family will reduce your influence, and there will be conflicts of interest in the future.

The concept of themselves and the Wang family is not consistent, what they need as businessmen is profit, and what they do is all public welfare, and they must sacrifice part of their interests.

It's not too difficult to change the drums to a coastal city and open again, and whoever you want to cooperate with will not turn a blind eye to this little thing in your hand. But the problem comes again, he is not a foreigner, he is completely under the control of the Great Song Dynasty, and once he takes the maritime merchants to play big, the court will definitely not turn a blind eye.

When they were in the Jinhe Empire, the Southern Song Dynasty court also played with their lives to mix sand into the fleet, and even did not hesitate to play yin, if they saw the interests and rushed up, they still couldn't bear it. I don't want to do the thing of making wedding clothes for others, mainly because they don't say hello when they take away the clothes, and try to prevent you.

Moreover, how to control the speed of development of maritime merchants is also a big problem, as long as they see the benefits, they can't stop, and this time is not enough to complete their plans.

Go to the mainland to find a city to be the governor, it will be a bit difficult to develop, in case you catch up with the local very strong clan forces, you have to fight-for-tat. Therefore, it doesn't matter if you say where it is appropriate, you have to rely on the mountains and rivers inspection institute and the post office system to carefully investigate.

In fact, there is one place that is not bad, that is, the Wendeng Huangzhuang mentioned on Monday. The people who went there to investigate have returned, the local population density is not large, but it is stronger than Huangzhou, and the people are not rich, but the poorer they are, the easier it is to change, the faster the results will be, and it will be easier to win the hearts of the people.

The most important thing is that the north of Huangzhuang is not far from the sea, Hong Tao carefully compared it on the map, and the fishing port town on the north side of the sea should be, not even, maybe, it is likely to be the Weihai port in the future.

Weihai, the best military port in northern China and the birthplace of the Beiyang Naval Division, the hydrological situation should not be too bad, steel warships can enter and exit, and it must be no problem to get some sails and armed cargo ships.

In fact, the coastline to the south of this Huangzhuang is also good, and the distance is not much. There is a bay that goes deep into the Shandong Peninsula for dozens of miles, called Changhuikou.

Hong Tao has been there in later generations, although it is not as deep as Weihai Port, and it can be used for sailing ships. In winter, there is no ice in the bay, and in summer there is no fear of typhoons.

There is also an advantage to the development of Wendeng, you can use Weihai Port to the north, Changhuikou to the south, and Goryeo and Japan to the east, which is not worse than the geographical location of Mingzhou.

After several days of nighttime discussions, Hong Tao and his wife and four concubines finally reached an agreement to go to Wendeng! So Ziju and Zhou Zhou jointly drafted a chapter, and wrote to the emperor to ask the county to go to Dengzhou.

Originally, I thought that the court would approve it soon after I asked for the county, but I couldn't wait for the left and the right, and seeing that the spring was blooming, there was still no news about the county.

Hong Tao didn't know why, maybe the court and the emperor had changed their minds again. He won't do anything like a stupid wife and other men, so if you want to come or not, let's be busy with your own business first.

What's the matter? It's important, and it's about the future of the next generation. Hong Tao was not very satisfied with the education method of the children's group, so he began to experiment with his two biological children again.

Wang Xiaoya can't go back to the house often, she lives in the teacher Su Shi's house, eats for nothing, lives in Baixue, this is the standard for accepting apprentices in ancient times, or how to say that one day is a teacher and a father for life, it is indeed more attentive than being a father.

But Wang Feiyu's classmate is still young, and he has no master to honor him, so he can only fall into the clutches of his father. In fact, even if someone is willing to be Wang Feiyu's teacher, the eldest princess is not reluctant.

This is the first son of the horse, and it is also likely that he will be the future heir of the horse. The eldest princess pays more attention to the child than her own mother Lian'er, and personally arranges food, clothing, housing and transportation. I have to say that the eldest princess is really kind by nature, there is no difference between her relatives and concubines, and she is completely regarded as her own.

"From today onwards, I will take the feather, and no one is allowed to interfere for half a point, if anyone does not listen to the family law!" The father is back, and the good days of the son are over.

As the saying goes, a loving mother has many defeated children, and it is too early to conclude whether Wang Feiyu is a defeated child, but Hong Tao believes that he is moving quickly towards this goal. If it is not controlled, it is likely that there will be a pit father and goods king in the streets of Kaifeng in the future.

"Yu'er doesn't like milk, it's better to let Lian'er help her husband take care of ......" The eldest princess has never resisted her husband's order, but this time she really can't help it, and she just wants to mix sand.

"Ridiculous, whose child is still breastfed at the age of three? My Wang Shu is a Yum general, and my son may not lead troops to fight in the future, but he must not be a man who is shrunk in a woman's arms and cannot be picked on his shoulders, cannot be lifted in his hands, and does not distinguish between grains. The lady should not mention this matter again, otherwise the same family law will serve! ”

This time, Hong Tao didn't even give the eldest princess face, and the next morning after returning home, he found that Lian'er was still breastfeeding the child, but it was not suitable to be angry because she had just entered the house.

"Officials always talk about family law, but they have never really seen how to ......" Lian'er doesn't mind who will discipline the child, anyway, she doesn't worry much except breastfeeding.

But she is fiercer than the eldest princess, or Han. It's good that my husband came back, but I can't eat snacks casually and I have to play ball and run every day, which is really uncomfortable, and I start to say strange things in my mouth.

"Don't stop anyone, whoever stops me and who is in a hurry! …… The officials spare their lives, spare their lives, and the slaves and maids don't dare anymore......" I didn't expect the response I got this time was not a verbal attack, Hong Tao gritted his teeth and pounced, pressed Lian'er on the bed, slapped her on the buttocks, and slapped it.

The room suddenly resounded with a pig-like scream, and the eldest princess shrank back. Mama Wang in the yard wanted to come in to rescue, but the probe saw that it was the horse who was enforcing the family law and didn't dare to interfere, and she went out again.

This beating of Lian'er can be regarded as a porcelain, you don't need to look at the injury on your buttocks, just look at Hong Tao's palm to know the color. These hands have also taken bows and crossbows and knife handles for six or seven years, and they are numb.

Lian'er herself doesn't know why she was beaten so badly by her husband, in addition to crying wow wow crying, she still cried wow wow wow wo

"The matter of the mother and the son cannot be done in my house, and if anyone has such thoughts again in the future, the official will beat him once he sees it, and it is only three things, and those who do not change their way will leave the house on their own. Lian'er deserved to be punished today, I hope you will always remember that this is the official's family law! ”

It's not over just beating Lian'er, Zhou Ri, Green Lotus, and Ziju were also called to train with them. This time, when he returned to the house, Hong Tao found a very subtle change, these women who had lived outside with him for many years did not respect the eldest princess as much as before.

With Lian'er as the most, sometimes she sleeps lazily and doesn't like to get up, and the eldest princess has to persuade her, and even helps her get clothes, so she waits for freshening. This was unthinkable before, and it seems to have become a habit, even if I come back, I will not restrain it.

Why is this happening, Hong Tao thought about it himself and came up with two possibilities. On the one hand, they have no rules at all when they follow themselves to live outside, as long as nothing major happens, they will generally let them and coax them, and as a result, they have developed bad habits, and they don't realize that they have to change after returning to the house. In addition, the eldest princess has a weak personality and is used to it, even if she is a little unhappy in her heart, she will not show it.

On the other hand, it is Wang Feiyu's problem, Lian'er immediately became noble when she had the identity of a son, and the eldest princess and Mama Wang both let her, which further contributed to this problem. The other three women are doing the same, they all look up to Lian'er, and they don't take the eldest princess seriously anymore.

The respect and inferiority of the elders and the young may sound like a remnant of feudalism, but in fact it is a rule that applies to family life, just as the state has laws and etiquette. Without these rules, the country will be in chaos, and the family will not be harmonious.

Hong Tao originally didn't have a good impression of etiquette, but after living in this era for a long time, he will feel its positive side. With the control of rules, family members will be in their own places and the occurrence of class conflicts will be reduced.

That's why I have to remind them in a timely manner that no matter how the eldest princess is indisputable and obedient in the Horse Mansion, she is always the eldest woman. It is possible for others to be more liked by themselves, but there is no possibility of replacing them.

Does it work? It has to work. Although the status of women in the Song Dynasty is not very low, the man in the family is still the sky, and the bigger and more prominent the family, the higher the status of the man.

The idea of the head of the family is the idea of the whole family, and it cannot be violated, even if a woman like Zhou Ri is already self-conscious, she still believes in this.
